Additional Info
Not sure if the adoption was thru Catholic Charities in Washington DC or St Ann's Infant & Maternity Home in Hyattsville Md, Prince Georges County. After he was born he went to St Ann's and I did not sign the adoption papers right away and remember visiting him. Adoption papers may have been signed by my mom beacause I was a minor. Her name is Patricia Markland. Our address at the time of the adoption was 7002 Allison Street, Landover Hills Maryland 20784.
